Ed Sheeran’s ‘Perfect’ Certified 3X Platinum

Published: Monday 22nd Jan 2018 by Rashad

 

It’s pretty safe to say 2018 is being kind to Ed Sheeran.

In addition to making headlines last week for sailing to #1 on U.K. charts with his hit ‘River’ (with Eminem) and later announcing his engagement to longtime girlfriend Cherry Seaborn, the singer-songwriter is also celebrating news that his hit ‘Perfect,’ currently sitting at #1 on the U.S. charts, has been certified 3x platinum thanks to help from Beyonce and Andrea Bocelli.

Thanks to some handsome and consistent streaming and paid download figures, Sheeran’s not only seeing his latest hit cross into a new certification tier, but also one of its chart-topping predecessors.

Details inside:

According to the RIAA, last week Sheeran’s ‘Perfect’ crossed the 3x platinum threshold while his megahit, ‘Shape of You,’ slid past the 8x platinum mark.

 

The certifications above granted just months after reports surfaced the tunes’ parent album, ‘Divide,’ was granted double platinum status in the U.S.
